Palacerigg play park

If you’re heading out to Palacerigg Country Park for a walk through the trails, the play park makes a decent stop to let the kids burn off some energy. The highlight for a lot of families is the wheelchair-accessible swing — not something you see at every park, and it makes a real difference. There’s open grass to run around on and a walking path that connects nicely to the wider country park, so it works well as part of a longer day out rather than just a standalone visit. Good for all ages, honestly — the forest setting gives it a bit more character than your average urban play area.
